1) Wrong - it's not in any language.

2) Your refusal to ever engage with substance is looking very suspicious now.

I've responded openly and substantively to you. Show you're capable of doing the same.

I don't know what that video is because I am not prepared to look at it until you start putting in some effort yourself to understand the other side of the conversation.

I've responded to all your questions with honesty and substance.

But you're not responding in a similar way. Even when I ask you to respond, you reply with nothing but a question.

Even a friendly discussion is like a game of tennis - you hit the ball to me, I hit it back to you... you don't get to keep hitting balls at me and expect me to continue playing tennis.

Anyone coming to this thread now has the opportunity to look at how I responded to your requests, and how you responded to mine.

I believe this shows what skepticism is about - fundamentally, it's about honesty. What can we honestly say about the world.

People like yourself aren't interested in what's true, so even if you had the best will in the world, you'd end up being dishonest to yourself.

But you don't have the best will in the world - you're basically just trolling, JAQing off, and generally failing to engage in any level of honest discussion.

I think this provides a good public measurement.

There is no solid evidence for Paranormal and Supernatural, that's why it's in the General Debunking subforum.

Desenmascarar - it's a nice word in Spanish, like stripping away the flashy make-up to expose the ugly reality.

Wow, that's impressively breathtaking. ORZIL. Let me pause ere I genuflect before your apprehension of higher reality.

Since I may not be witnessing an apprehension of higher reality, but only so much gormless trolling, I shall take my time.

Oh dearie me, ORZIL stumbles at the first fence.

'Phenomenon' isn't a spoooky word for ghostie, it means something that has actually been observed. If you can't provide evidence for something, it ain't a phenomenon.

it happens to me

Aaaand we're to anecdotes...it's like watching one of the ordinary bunnies in the Duracell ad slowly going round in a circle.

goosebumps

Yeah, you know goosebumps are a merely a physical response to fear? Or maybe you need to turn up your central heating.

Complete and utter twaddle. Claims exist to be tested to destruction. They don't get a free-ride just because they fall apart like a clown's car on the most trivial of perusal.

Bought Psychic News to see what all this might be about. Haven't opened it yet. I'm reading the cover first.

I see emerging through a foggy haze that a cover note like this one will soon appear:

As long as there are smudges on photographs, there will be belief in ghosts.

Yes. You need to quit looking at them mucky pictures OZRIL.

As long as people think that existence is essentially material, believers in ghosts will be laughed at.

I don't think existence is essentially material. I think essentiality is essentially essential and that existence is existential. I could say that consequence is consequential, but I think you get the picture.



A major part of theism is the idea that words are powerful. In the right hands, they are. You are not that guy.

How’s that job at UPS, delivering material to material beings?

No.

Are rationalist evidences valid?

You already asked this before, and the answer was 'of course you're allowed to cite links' just as you would be on any forum.
